Arithmetic Refresher: Improve your working knowledge of arithmetic

This is a very interesting paperback book from Dover on arithmetic. It has fractions, division, square roots, the usual math stuff. But it also has world problems, like mixtures and percents that can still be applied in today's world. Dr. Klaf has written several other books that are equally interesting.

Have you ever blanked out when someone asked you a simple arithmetic question? Yeah, you know what I'm talking about.This book is aimed at adults who have forgotten much of the basic arithmetic taught in school. It starts with the basics: addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, and then ranges over a variety of topics (business and financial calculations, percentages, charts, angle measurements, logarithms, mixtures and solutions, averages, etc.). It contains over 800 problems, easy-to-follow questions and answers in a question and answer style. If you are returning to school, or have school aged children (and need to help with homework) this book can help to jog your memory.
